what other job has this much freedom w/ no boss over your shoulder and nobody watching your every move.
For me, I don't really know what it is. I have gotten out of this industry twice now, only to find myself back in it. The first time, I stayed away for almost 7 years, the 2nd time for about 3 years. And during the time away, the temptation or "itch" to get back into it was always there.
I like sleeping in a warm toasty truck, when it's snowing like hell outside lol.
